  • Docker is dead?!? Podman - an alternative tool?

    Another possibility to switch from Docker containers are the so-called Unikernels. These are briefly mentioned here for the sake of completeness, even though they currently have no significance in the Kubernetes context. An interesting blog post on the topic can be found on Hackernoon. It is an interesting construct that may one day find its way into the world of Kubernetes if containers can be replaced by unikernels. Currently, the use of unikernels would not be feasible in my opinion.
